Our Story

We are New York City’s original all-inclusive theater group; offering a home for everyone regardless of color, ability, ethnicity, age, or gender. We’ve been this way since Day One and are committed to this mission as a leader in NYC. We support every artist— whether they be sight-impaired, hard of hearing, rainbow-hued, differently-enabled, or otherwise empowered. Many other theaters have been inspired by our philosophy and have joined with us in our support of diversity.
